During Transfer of Two Electrons Through the Mitochondrial Respiratory Chain $\rightarrow$

question 93

Essay

During transfer of two electrons through the mitochondrial respiratory chain, the overall reaction is:
NADH + 1/2 O₂ + H⁺ $\rightarrow$ NAD⁺ + H₂O
For this reaction, the difference in reduction potentials for the two half-reactions ( $\Delta$ E'°) is +1.14 V. Show how you would calculate the standard free-energy change, $\Delta$ G'°, for the reaction. (The Faraday constant, , is 96.48 kJ/V · mol.)
